README
Impersonate frontend users from inside the TYPO3 Backend.
What does it do?
This extension gives backend users with administrator privileges the possibility to authenticate as any specific frontend user in the frontend with just a single click from inside the backend. This does not include default backend users.
And remember: With great power comes great responsibility. The purpose of this extension is mainly to allow for a tech support login as a specific user and see potential problems and bugs from the perspective of the user as well as doing tech support actions while impersonating the specified user account.
